Sparks of the General Land Once makes a
sweeping denial of the published report
that he has written letters TO New York
politicians ia voring the nomination of Gov

for the Vice Presidency N 1883. The state

made out Of whole cloth. He never wrote
such letters, never saw Governor Hill, never
received letter from and never wrote one
to the Governor, and denies the whole
thing. Mr.. Sparks challenges the produc-
ton of any such letters He hopes f. s.
Stokes, in whose hands the publisher placed
them, will make them public, and If any Of
them appear he will prove them to be iorg-

FOREST FIRES IN THE WEST.
FARMERS FIGHTING DAY AND
NIGHT TO SAVE THEIR
THREATENED HOMES.

CHICAGO. Nov. "A special
from Charleston, H., reports heavy
fires in the timber two or three
miles to the south Of the town.
These fires have been sweeping
through the fallen leaves and dry
underbrush for two days. and
Notwithstanding the people in tn"
immediate neighbOrhOcd are out in
force fighting the flames by burning
and blowing around them, they are
still raging with as much fury as
ever. Reports from Diona, a small
town ten miles southeast, say that
destructive fires have also been
PLAYING thereabout and are vet
burning No estimate of the dam
age can be made.
VINcENNEs, IND, Nov. De
structive forest fires have been
raging for three days twenty-five
miles south Of town, at HazletOn
and Decker. Fences and timber
were at the mercy of the flames
The people fought the fires all
night Friday to save their homes.
Thousands of dollars damage was
done, and the fires were not sub
dued until yesterday. The drought
made the woods an easy prey to
the flames, and for time it seemed
as if the destruction of the homes
of many people was imminent, n
large amount of heavy timber was
destroyed.
CHICAGO, Nov. IA Centralla,
Ill.,, special says: Forest fires are
raging in the timber and prairies
in various sections of this county
and the surrounding country. a
dense cloud of smoke completely
obscuring the SUMS rays hOyered
over this vicinity yesterday and
many citizens awoke in the morn
ing almost stifled and their houses
filled with smoke. Several incip-
lent fires that spring up among the
weeds and dry leaves scattered
abOut the town have been put out.
The water supply is very limited
and the Illinois Central railroad
has to run trains for several miles
to get a supply sufficient to keep
their shops running.
